RSS Feeds

Today, with the help of a nearby staff member, I finally figured out how to add an RSS feed onto my blog. The instructions in Module 4 were not very clear as to what results were expected. I knew what an RSS feed was, I opened an account in bloglines, but it seemed like an extra step to have to go to the bloglines page to read the feeds.

I went to eHow and learned how to modify my blog to capture an RSS feed.

Hhmm. Maybe I missed a key point to it all.

Flikr Away

Venturing on in my exploration of Web 2.0, my next stop was Flickr. Having heard so much about the photo website, I was excited to actually have work time to experiment. I can't wait to actually try and upload photos, which of course are all at home in my computer and not here at the office.

Oh well, homework for me tonight.

How can Flikr be used in the job? Good question...

1. A place where HQ can look to see the crowds (and enthusiasm) generated by programming.

2. Bring a book to life in some type of online book review. (Not pictures of a book, but perhaps images that relate to the book)

3. Showcase staff in community/schools outreach.

Time to go and serve others.....................

A New World
